    Rams Towing Racecars Thread

    It’s great. I put about 500lbs in the bed. Trailer is 1800 lbs and car is 2600-2700 lbs. I get 15mpg towing and have no real trouble.

    NH - Any dealer service department recommendations?

    Went in today for my first service. $70 for oil/filter, tire rotation and multipoint inspection. Happy to report my first dealer service went well. Thanks for the recommendation a year ago.

    NO TAILGATE AJAR WARNING ?? 2020 ram rebel

    From the factory the cargo lamps won’t operate with the transmission out of park. Doesn’t matter what position the tailgate is. But I’m not sure what happens with the reprogramming folks are doing with AlphaOBD.

    NO TAILGATE AJAR WARNING ?? 2020 ram rebel

    What’s annoying me even more is you can still build my 2020 Laramie on ramtrucks.com and the website still shows the tailgate ajar warning as part of my Level 1 equipment package. See the photo.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    Not true. I ordered my truck back in June. FCA told me to make sure the dealer had a protected order. Our agreement was the incentives / rebates at the time I ordered, or when during delivery, which ever made the truck less expensive. So when I ordered it was the most I was going to pay, and if...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    It’s like $100 or less flight to MD from NH on Southwest. Maybe a rental car from Baltimore to dealer for $50. Then a 7-8 hour drive back.

    Air conditioning Hack

    My build date is 7/22.... but at the moment (and back in Aug when I took delivery) my AC performs to our satisfaction.

    Air conditioning Hack

    I think loaners are usually at the descretion of the dealership. My s suggestion is you work directly with Ram Cars to arrange the service with the dealer so they deal with and know what Ram Cares said.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I bought from Carl at Criswell in MD. I’m in NH. He was great to deal with. See my posts here: https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/2020-06-thru-2020-10-great-experience-with-carl.21391/ Koons is also similar distance, in VA.

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    If the dealers you are visiting actually pay “invoice” and only make “holdback” then I suggest you travel more distance to a higher volume dealer. The dealers that are on here and sponsor the forum offer no haggle pricing that is better than what you describe, and you can order exactly what you...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    I wouldn’t actually argue over it, just tell them what your final offer is and walk. Deduct that fee and change their stupid process fee to what you are willing to pay. Then just tell them. When you point out what you think is an error and they say it’s not they think you are just going to...

    Price negotiated from MSRP

    @EGP wow. I don't get the numbers bug wow! $69005 MSRP and your paperwork shows $58,170 price; so discount is $10,835. Is this the value of a trade-in? Then you got another $2741 discount. What was this? Then you got the $2500 in rebates. Is that first $10,835 isn't from a trade-in you did...

    Help...am I overloading my new 2020 1500?

    @apctjb you might want to consider a small uhaul enclosed trailer: https://www.uhaul.com/Trailers/4x8-Cargo-Trailer-Rental/UV/ If you do that I’d buy (2) spare trailer tires though for 1000 mile trip. I don’t think uhaul provides them.

    Very first Oil change x 2, 5K OMG why did I do it....and thanks for the heads up on the filter.

    I use something like this on my other vehicles and they work great. Haven’t needed to do the 1st change on the Ram yet. Ive also used a solo cup on another vehicle which might be an option instead of a ziplock bag? But I’m also thinking you could zip tie the zip lock bag to filter too which...
